Connecting Rural Youth
to Outdoor Opportunities

What We Do

Beyond Horizons Institute empowers rural young people through guided outdoor education and personalised support.

We provide fully supported Duke of Edinburgh Award pathways, including mentoring across all sections, access to an outdoor community, and structured Adventurous Journeys.

How We Work

We begin by registering participants into a personalised Duke of Edinburgh Award pathway and connecting them with a mentor who guides them through every section of the Award.

Why We Exist

We exist to ensure rural and regional young people have access to meaningful outdoor education and life-changing experiences.

We strongly believe in the benefits the framework of the Duke of Ed Award brings to anyone that participates.

You were such an amazing leader and all the things we did I have so clearly remembered. I have looked back on photos of that camp a million times and it has got to be the most free I have ever felt and those memories have got me through many of my hardest times. I wanted to let you know that you had such a massive impact on my life and I really appreciate you and everything you have done for me without even realising.
